Manchester City are reportedly hoping to raid their MLS partner club New York City FC for Christian McFarlane.
According to a report from The Sun, New York City FC left-back Christian McFarlane is on Manchester City’s radar. And the Premier League champions are looking to secure his services in the coming months.
The 15-year-old is rated highly at the MLS club, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester City can bring him to the Premier League in the upcoming window.
It is clear that the young defender will be a future investment for the Premier League champions and it will be interesting to see if they are willing to loan him back to New York City so that he can continue his development with regular first-team football.
Manchester City have a dearth of options in the left-back department and McFarlane will fancy his chances of getting into the first team in the near future. The 15-year-old is far from ready for Premier League football and Manchester City will have to handle his development carefully over the next few seasons.
Apart from signing established individuals, the Premier League giants have shown a willingness to bring in talented young players for the future. McFarlane will be a quality acquisition for them in the long run if he manages to adapt to English football and fulfil his potential. He could even look like a bargain in the long run.
Meanwhile, the Premier League giants will be hoping to defend their title this season. They are currently trailing behind rivals Arsenal, but they will fancy their chances of bridging that gap during the second half of the season.
Recently, Manchester City managed to secure Pep Guardiola’s long-term future at the club with a contract extension and the development will have come as a major boost for the fans and players. It will be interesting to see if they can overtake the likes of Arsenal in the league table after the World Cup.
As far as McFarlane is considered, the move to Manchester City would be a major step up in his career and it will be interesting to see if he can fulfil his tremendous potential with the Premier League club over the next few seasons.
